Cucumber rolls with cottage cheese and red fish

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make cucumber rolls with cottage cheese and red fish? Prepare the necessary products. A cucumber is better suited for a long one, it will make strips of sufficient size for a roll. If there are only short fruits, it's okay, make the rolls small. Take any fish — trout, salmon, pink salmon, chum salmon. Suitable for both purchased and salted at home. An interesting taste will turn out with smoked fish.

2. Step 2:

   

   Any greens you like will do, but I would advise using dill — its taste goes well with fish. Rinse the greens well under running water, then dry them with paper towels or napkins. Remove branches that are too thick. Finely chop the greens with a knife.

3. Step 3:

   

   Finely dice the fish, the smaller, the neater the snack will look.

4. Step 4:

   

   Take a small bowl and put the chopped greens and fish in it. Add the cheese. You can take any cheese curd, with additives the taste will be even more interesting. And in general, any soft cheese will do — feta, cheese, cream, mascarpone. Keep in mind only that some varieties of cheeses are very salty, then choose fish with little salt.

5. Step 5:

   

   Mix all the ingredients of the filling.

7. Step 6:

   

   Wash the cucumber, dry it. Take a special knife for peeling vegetables — it will be most convenient for them to work. Cut the cucumber into long thin strips. It is better not to use the first slice of cucumber skin, it is too hard. One cucumber can make about 20 strips.

8. Step 7:

   

   Spread the strip full length on the board. Put a teaspoon of filling on its very edge. There is another option to smear it along the entire length, then you will get a thicker, multi-layered roll.

9. Step 8:

   

   Gently twist the cucumber into a roll, wrapping the filling inside.

10. Step 9:

    

    Twist all the strips and all the stuffing in this way. To decorate, cut cherry tomatoes into halves. Pierce each half of the tomato with a toothpick and secure the roll with it. You can also use special skewers, but they seemed a little big to me.

11. Step 10:

    

    Arrange the rolls on a platter, garnish with fresh herbs and serve to the table. Bon appetit!
